        Hello, im quite new to the MagicMirror and I only have basic Programming Knowledge. I tried using ur Module and i strictly followed ur guide, but it doesnt work. The module itself is loading even th icons, but there are no numbers visible. I tried to check the library but it doesnt work.
        Is it a Problem on my side or a Problem with the adafruit library?

        Thx for your help.

          I have installed the module but get the following when I try to run your test ‘python3 AdafruitDHT.py 22 26’

          I know the DHT-22 works on GPIO pin 26
          ~/Adafruit_Python_DHT/examples $ sudo python3 AdafruitDHT.py 22 26
          Traceback (most recent call last):

          raise RuntimeError(‘Unknown platform.’)
          RuntimeError: Unknown platform.

          Any thoughts?

            @lif It’s requiring tools no longer available, so dead module. Use something else.

            https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-Temperature is what I used when I had a module hooked up to it.

            The "E" in "Javascript" stands for "Easy"

              Thanks, I’ve given it a try but get an error in the last stage of the installation

                @lif I’m not sure on that, @wishmaster270 (Tom) would know more.

                    @lif Hi. Great you want to try one of my modules.

                    Can you try installing a additional python system package with

                    sudo apt install python3-rpi-lgpio
                    

                    I tried the scripts on my newly installed system with Bookworm and everything worked as expected.
                    Maybe the missing package had been installed with something else I installed on my system.

                        That’s strange…Can you try to start with a new, fresh virtual python environment and install the needed libs again?

                        Remove old virtual environment:

                        rm -rf /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts/py-venv
                        

                        Install the needed system libs:

                        sudo apt -y update && sudo apt -y install python3-venv libgpiod2
                        

                        Re-Create the virtual environment:

                        cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                        ./venvWrapper.py --verbose --venv-name py-venv --create
                        

                        Re-Install the libs:

                        cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                        ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --install-libs adafruit-circuitpython-dht
                        

                        Run the test again:

                        cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                        ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22
                        

                        If it fails again. Can you please provide the output of

                        cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts
                        source py-venv/bin/activate
                        pip freeze
                        deactivate

                            @sdetweil Hi sam. My wrapper script will use the python binary in the virtual environment folder. This way the environment will be activated automatically.

                                The only difference from yours is mine is missing the second line.

                                Hope this helps

                                  Hi,

                                  I’ve gone through your procedure again and this time it works.

                                  The only difference is that I run a python3 script to control screen blanking using a PIR before starting Magic Mirror, this time I didn’t start that script.

                                  With the PIR script and MagicMirror running I get:

                                  pi@mm:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts $ ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22
                                  {"temperature_c": 23.5, "humidity": 53.7, "temperature_f": 74.30000000000001, "error": false}
                                  pi@mm:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts $ ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22
                                  {"temperature_c": 23.5, "humidity": 53.7, "temperature_f": 74.30000000000001, "error": false}
                                  pi@mm:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Temperature/scripts $ ./venvWrapper.py --venv-name py-venv --run ./dht22
                                  {"temperature_c": 0.0, "humidity": 0.0, "temperature_f": 32.0, "error": true}
